14. 14 SERDP/ESTCP Investments Related to Corrosion ·DoD assets are subject to significant degradation due to corrosion, with specific impacts in following areas ·Financial: $18-$22 billion annually ·Readiness: Weapons systems routinely out of commission ·Safety: Weapon systems mishaps documented ·Many materials used to impart corrosion resistance have environmental and/or worker safety concerns SERDP and ESTCP Webinar Series (#29)

15. Electrodeposition of Nanocrystalline Co-P Coatings as a Hard Chrome Alternative Results ● nCoP meets the majority of acceptance criteria for coating quality, adhesion, fatigue, corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, fluid compatibility, wear, and impact testing. ● It is anticipated that nCoP may be widely specified per MIL-DTL-32502 as a hard chrome alternative on the basis of testing completed to date. NAVAIR FRC SE Jacksonville Benefits ● Implementation will eliminate environmental and worker safety concerns associated with the hexavalent chromium used in DoD plating operations.

16. 16 Team: Benet Laboratories, Army Research Laboratory, Ares Inc., High Energy Metals, Inc., TPL, Inc., General Dynamics ATP Eliminating Chromium from Medium Caliber Gun Barrels Results  Process to explosively bond Tantalum-10% tungsten liners to the insides of medium caliber cannons.  Firing tests demonstrated that the lined tube showed superior wear resistance – lasts >three times as long as chrome-plated tube. Benefits  Eliminates the use of hexavalent chromium in medium caliber gun barrels while providing superior performance and reduced life cycle costs.

17. 17 Non-Chrome Primers – WP-201132 ● NAVAIR PAX long term project to evaluate non-Cr primers ● Evaluation of various new NC primer alternatives  Latest info from Julia Russell, NAVAIR PAX ASETSDefense Workshop, Fort Myer 2014  PPG-DEFT 02-GN-084 Rare Earth NC primer authorized by NAVAIR over chromate pretreats  H46 testing of NC system – Alodine T5900 RTU pretreat, Hentzen 17176KEP primer ● NAVAIR has developed Al-rich primer as alternative to chromated primer on aluminum, MIL-PRF-53022 primers on mixed metals and zinc-rich primers on steel  Initial test results look very promising 17 Al-rich primer 20 mos KSC, with and without topcoat

18. 18 Optimum Cadmium Alternative (WP- 201107), Hill AFBWP- 201107 ● Data shows best alternative to Cd is Al ● Why not electroplated Al or IVD?  Electroplates from toluene  Enclosed line, high capital cost  IVD vacuum process, uptime problems ● LHE ZnNi is taking over from Cd  Why? ZnNi electroplates from aqueous solution (just like Cd), so no enclosed or vacuum line  Better performance than Cd  Not attacked by standard alkaline cleaners  Works best with trivalent passivate
